Injured Scotland prop Fagerson out of Lions tour
Scotland prop Zander Fagerson has been ruled out of the British and Irish Lions' tour to Australia with a calf injury, head coach Andy Farrell announced on Monday.
The Glasgow Warriors tighthead will be replaced in the squad by Ireland international Finlay Bealham.
The squad, minus those involved in next weekend's Premiership Rugby and United Rugby Championship finals, are due to fly to Portugal for a training camp on Tuesday.
England pair Jamie George and Asher Opoku-Fordjour will also join the group.
"It's tough on Zander to miss out so close to the tour, but now Finlay gets an opportunity to come in and add to the group," said Farrell.
"This is unfortunately part and parcel of the game, so we always have to be prepared for that.
"But it's great to be finally at the stage where we can get onto the training ground and get to work with these players."
The Lions, captained by England skipper Maro Itoje, face Argentina in Dublin on June 20 before starting their tour of Australia, which includes three Tests against the Wallabies.
